The tunnel boring machines for the Jintang Undersea Tunnel are expected to dock under the seabed in March next year.
Shield tunneling on the Zhoushan side of the Ningbo–Zhoushan Railway’s Jintang Undersea Tunnel was completed today, November 11. The Jintang Undersea Tunnel is a critical project on the Ningbo–Zhoushan Railway, and the tunnel boring machines are expected to meet beneath the sea in March next year. Once the railway is completed and opens to traffic, it will end Zhoushan’s history of having no railway connection.金塘海底隧道是甬舟铁路控制性工程,预计明年3月盾构机实现海底对接。
